Bringing your inner essence into the outer world on a daily basis has its challenges. Your thoughts and beliefs about your inner world and the meaning you give your experience impact on how you navigate day-to-day living with your communication, relationships and sense of overall well-being. When you are aligned with your inner essence you are better able to orient to what is life-enhancing for your choices, decisions, and actions.
InnerWorld
Your inner world consists of thoughts and images you have about yourself and the world based on attitudes and beliefs from your family, stress factors, memory imprints, and earlier experiences. Bringing light to unconscious material creates the opportunity to choose between feeling overwhelmed, stressed, afraid and reactive, or sense of calm, compassion for self and others, and inner peace. Knowing that you have a choice allows your core essence to access your inner compass to create greater freedom.

“It is precisely because we resist the darkness in ourselves that we miss the depths of the loveliness, beauty, brilliance, creativity, and joy that lie at our core.” ~Thomas Moore
Outer World
When you are disconnected from your inner compass, self-judgment, self-doubt and fear can keep you from taking action. This can also limit your ability to express your inner truth and values. This can lead to the feeling that you have to change how you interact with others to reduce possible judgment or conflict with them.
This can also lead to making choices that keep your truth from being seen or heard. In fact, this can contribute to compensating for or giving up your truth to receive acceptance, love, and validation from others.
Either way, by protecting or managing possible hurt or creating false hope for getting needs met, you limit access to the wisdom of your inner essence and its potential to radiate into the world.
“Healing is the rediscovery of who we are and who we have always been.” ~Joan Borysenko
Meaning
Finding your inner compass allows you to benefit from wisdom and discernment so you can respond to what is happening in front of you. When you are aligned with the insight, inspiration, and affirmation of your inner compass you are better able to respond to life from a place of true author-ship. You do so by consciously aligning with your gold standard for living and action.
This happens by giving meaning to your past experiences to unveil the messages, unmet needs and limiting patterns from your past experience, family system and groups. Taking the lessons from your experience creates the opportunity for new possibilities and positive choice. By doing so, you become more oriented to your own essence and direction of your spiritual and life journey.
“The past is your lesson. The present is your gift. The future is your motivation.”~Unknown
This is your personal invitation to work with the lessons of the past so you can experience greater choice in the present to create the future you’d like to experience.

Relationship energy exchanges describe the quality and quantity of energy streaming between you and another person. When the stream of energy between two people or people in a group is coherent, your energy fields are amplified in a way that enhances your endeavors and partnerships. Coherent energy streams create a greater sense of harmony, joy, love, trust, pleasure, and creativity.
Whether your relationship is with an acquaintance, colleague, physical or mental friendship, spiritual interaction, therapeutic relationship, mothering or fathering relationship, or sexual interaction, your relationship energy exchange impacts your sense of feeling nurtured, trust, support, respect, protection, boundaries, and sense of ease.
According to Valerie Hunt, a research scientist who studied energy fields, there are three primary relationship energy field exchanges. Everything is energy and energy is everything. What you nourish yourself with through food, relationship, nature and thought make a difference in the integrity of your wellness and well-being. If you find yourself stuck in non-coherent relationship patterns related to any of these, you deplete your energy and your ability to experience choice, vitality, and connection.
1. Reaction Exchange involves too much force or intensity which is a response to survival responses from your past. This non-coherent energy stream does not create growth.
2. Transaction Exchange involves selectively choosing frequencies into your field from an interaction with another person. It is based on the need to protect your field from absorbing what you do not want by filtering. This exchange does not support full expansion, and growth is limited.
3. Interaction Exchange is a coherent energy stream and expansion with another person’s field who is also streaming coherent and streaming. In this energy exchange, there is maximum potential for growth, learning, and transformation.
According to Dr. Viscott, author of Emotional Resilience, when children do not experience their father valuing or showing love to their mother through gesture, word and actions, it becomes increasingly difficult to take the lesson of the fathering aspect in a relationship for a partner or project. When a mother does not nourish, is unavailable or there is neglect, this can lead to unresolved issues that keep a part of you stuck inside dependent, control or competitive/performing stages of child development that interferes with your ability to create discerning, nourishing and coherent interactions in your relationships today.
Many times, based on earlier experiences when trust and safety were violated, or your family experience was one where you did not see or hear your mother or father demonstrate these qualities, you take the non-coherent energy pattern into your own template of relationship patterns. Drs. John and Julie Gottman have studied children and families for several decades and found that it is not conflict in a family that diminishes the ability to practice interacting with others, but the lack of experiencing coherent resolution of the conflict in families. If a child witnesses a particular non-coherent conflict style in a parent that was volatile, avoidant, or that of negotiator, these styles become the lens through which you see and experience the world. These patterns are reactivated in relationships when memory imprints, family patterns or conflict arises.
Resonance Repatterning®works with identifying and transforming your response triggers from earlier experiences in your life through working with non-coherent experiences related to how you relate, perceive relationships, and handle conflict today. This process updates and allows greater balance, harmony, and love by healing these experiences in your body-mind system. This increases your repertoire for more coherent beliefs, thoughts, attitudes and positive action in yourrelationship energy exchanges.

In Chinese Medicine, the bridge between your body-mind system begins in your heart. It is the emperor of the body-mind system. This is why when considering the empire and domain of the heart, it is important to look at the bridge between your heart, your emotions, and your overall health. When considering your heart, it is vital to include the impact of stress, your emotions, thoughts, beliefs, attitudes, and interactions with the world, and their effect on your health.
Creating harmony with your relationship between your natural environment, personal and inter-personal life is essential. Dis-ease can arise from blocked circulation, lack of moderation or loss of balance in any of these areas.
Factors that Negatively Impact the Bridge between Your Heart and Body-Mind System
Lack of harmony in your body can relate to the extent of the tenseness or quality of relationships between your inner and outer world. Excessive or moderate eating or drinking affects the quality of the health of your physical heart.
Excess negative thinking can impact the function of your spleen and your heart. This can show up in emotional extremes such as worry, fear, anger, sadness, and fright. The physiological response to these mental or emotional states create changes in blood pressure, muscle tenseness, pulse rate, change in your flow of blood and breath cycles, and excess nervous system response. Over time automatic response to stress can shut down cellular and systemic communication impacting the overall function of your body-mind system.
Anxiety, Depression and Heart Disease
Emotions and cardiovascular symptoms link together. How you physically and emotionally cope with life-related stress is directly related to how you meet the challenge of modulating your emotions in these situations. There is always a choice. Your response to life can create mental or emotional states that either expand or restrict your ability to be open to life or to open your heart. Internal conflict creates nervousness and palpitation of your heart.
However, experiencing a sense of entrainment, trust and safety can also increase your sense of inner peace. The ability to choose your response to life literally expands your view and creates greater optimism and possibilities for wellness and well-being!
Resonance Repatterning® sessions enable you to identify stress, create stress-reducing behaviors, and build greater integrity in your wellness and well-being. This happens through matching specific natural healing ways to your needs based on the resonance muscle-checking system that accesses your autonomic nervous system. By doing so, it is possible to get to the root of internal unconscious states that keep you in excess mode physically, mentally, or emotionally. Creating internal harmony and balance benefits your health, relationships, and well-being.

Resonance Repatterning® gets to the heart of what you need to experience positive change in your life by working with the information within your body-mind system. Because your Nervous System is connected to every muscle, tissue, gland, and organ in your body, the resonance muscle-check is a way to access both conscious and unconscious material within your life.
The Resonance Muscle-Checking process can be done in-person, by Skye, phone or proxy .
Through the process, it is possible to record where your current life energy is dedicated through your resonance with the frequency of limiting beliefs, thoughts, attitudes or focus based on your experiences, family patterns, and responses to stress in your system. This is done by identifying the area, specific time and location of levels.
Identifying Area
In a session, the resonance muscle-check reveals three levels: general, specific and umbilical for where specific life energy is stored. A general muscle-check refers to accessing your body-mind system globally. A specific muscle-check refers to accessing a particular place in your body-mind field such as an organ, system (ie. Meridian or Chakra, respiratory, digestive, etc., gland, vertebrae, senses, eyes, neurotransmitter, or a specific place in your energy field).
Establishing Time
When working with a specific check, it is important to check for the root or heart of the information for when it originated. By doing so, your system has the opportunity to address the issue from the source where the energy was constricted or interrupted. The disruption in your life energy has had an impact on how you think and respond to life. Through muscle-checking it is possible to identify pre-natal information, birth process, post-natal, or any time within your life where the information related to the work you have brought to the session is related. Family Systems is part of the work in Resonance Repatterning, and, in these specific repatternings, the process identifies specific generational origins of patterns that impact your life based on the muscle-checking process with genogram charts (Example: 4 generations back on Father’s side related to a sibling. You do not need to know the name of an ancestor, however, the relationship to patterns in your life is stored in the DNA that came through them. When this information is included in the session, it works with the root of the material needed for transforming your life in the present.
Locating Specific Level
When working with a specific muscle-check, disrupted energy is addressed at the following levels.
1. Physical Level: In Chinese Medicine, Jing and Chi are the most important aspects of your health. Primary jing is inherited from your parents, while acquired jing is acquired from the energy derived from nutrition, exercise, sleep, and healthy habits. Jing is experienced through its function and effect. It can be observed through the physical health of your muscles, hair, brain function, fertility, skin, eyes, function of your organs and system, strength, resistance, vitality, and energy levels.
Jing is concentrated energy, and chi is dispersed energy through air, breath and vital energy throughout your body-mind system.
2. Mental Level: Thought patterns create neurotransmitter responses. Reinforcing limiting beliefs and carrying negative attitudes about life embed pathways in your brain-heart-gut pathways that reinforce your perception of how life is playing out in front of you. The neurotransmitters created between what you think, what you feel, and how you respond are communicated throughout your body. Your Brain allows you to observe, problem-solve, make decisions, memory input, association, and meaning to your experience; respond to stress with the fight, flight, freeze or rest.
3. Emotional Level: Each of your organs is associated with emotion. The kidney, home of Jing essence is negatively impacted by your resonance with excessive fear. Your liver is impacted by anger. Your heart is impacted by hate or overexcitement. Your stomach is impacted by worry. Your lungs are impacted by grief. Your large intestines by congested emotion of feeling stuck, and so on.
This is the OFF position for the muscle-checking process. When you are OFF for a statement, you are either not dedicating life energy to that belief, thought, or issue, or not resonating with it.
4. Spirit Level: In Chinese Medicine, the word, Shen, refers to the core essence of your being. Shen is the manifestation of your life and is related to your emotional and mental activity. In sessions, this shows up as working with what motivates you in your life influencing the direction and actions you take. This relates to your life purpose and sense of interaction with your inner world, relationships, and the outer world. So whether you are inspired to work with animals, advocate for the environment, write a book or wish to live mindfully, this is directly related to this level.
Umbilical muscle-checking gives a read-out on core life energy. When checking at his level, it taps into where there is no information or toleration. This can often be due to generational patterns, prenatal or family patterns, or in response to trauma, shock or abuse that created difficulty in embodying the information for healing. When working with generational or family patterns, it is often material that belongs to a parent that was internalized by the client. In order to bring this information into coherent and loving conscious awareness, it is vital to build core life energy to work with the process of creating discernment and support for updating your body-mind system.
This is your personal invitation to allow the information stored within your body-mind system to create new possibilities in your life. You are wired for success and wellness. Your system reports to you wherever you feel pain whether that be on the emotional or physical level. Resonance Repatterning sessions get to the heart of what you need to build and restore your vital life energy so you can dedicate more life energy to your positive intentions for your life.
Building coherence in the process of positive change leads to self-actualization. Resonance Repatterning® works by transforming non-coherent material related to limiting beliefs, attitudes, thoughts, and reactions that have created conflict in your life. By getting to the heart or root of these life-depleting patterns, your body-mind system can update this information so that you resonate with more coherent life energy that creates vitality to dedicate to your positive intentions for life. What you resonate with, is what you will experience in your life.
Maslow’s Hierarchy image from Wikipedia This hierarchy illustrates the importance of basic needs being met in the process of self-actualization starting with the base and moving toward the top of the pyramid.
You are wired for success and self-healing. When you are oriented to the present, this is where true positive change can happen. Your emotional and survival brain where your unconscious patterns reside does not know the past or future, only right now. When you experience shifts in a Resonance Repatterning® session, your brain is able to update memory imprints and make positive shifts in response to these updates through building coherence in your system overall. This means that instead of experiencing hyper-vigilance, living at a survival level, insecurity, or feeling of lack of safety, belonging, or sense of self-esteem, your body-mind system creates new more life-enhancing pathways, choices, and freedom for experiencing more vital life-enhancing energy as you move through the process towards self-actualization.
When you resonate with the truth of your positive intentions in the present, you are better able to orient yourself to what is beneficial for your life force today. This shows up in your ability to tune in to the messages that come from your true self through inner awareness creating more discernment, inner balance, confidence, and equilibrium. Doing so, allows you to become more aware of what is in front of you by expanding your ability to see, feel, sense, and respond from your inner compass so you can either move towards or away from life experiences and situations that present love, calm, nurture, safety, and trust, or genuine threats of danger.
The 4 Levels of Coherence in the Resonance Repatterning Process
1) Coherence for Who You Are
When you resonate with your personal strengths, this allows you to be in the present in order to become aware of your feelings, thoughts, sensations, and needs. This is the first step to building coherence in self-love and awareness, wellness, and well-being. When your body-mind system communicates better, your experience of life becomes more mindful as you consider the messages this feedback gives you. This creates both grounding and flexibility in the journey of being more aligned with your center. At the same time, this allows you to be in a process with a greater sense of commitment in your own growth process when you experience stress and challenges in your life.
2) Coherence in How You Relate
As
you become more aware of your inner world, and your values, you are
better able to see what is happening in your relationships with
others. You are only able to see in others what you are able to see
in your self. If limiting beliefs and patterns have kept you in a
position that was created by a traumatic or unresolved experience in
the past, you will only see through that lens until you heal that
material.
Being in a relationship with another person whether that be intimate, business or friend requires that you have the capacity to listen and interact on the basis of how much you feel safe and trust. Resonating with your inner relationship skills will allow you to choose relationships that create life-enhancing benefits that stream both ways in the balance of giving and receiving.
3) Coherence in What You Do
The Buddhists have a beautiful tenet that says,“ Remember who you are, and know what you do.” This speaks to aligning with your inner truth, strengths, and connection to love. By doing so you have the capacity to draw upon your inner awareness based on love and compassion rather than being driven by fear or reaction from shame, guilt, hurt, and fear activated by harmful past experiences.
4) Coherence in Your Understanding
Creating positive change in your own life develops through understanding that it is a process. Letting go of regrets, self-pity, resentment, fear, grief, anger and negative judgments allow you to be in the personal growth process amid challenges that come with making positive change. This creates a space for you to create the life you want to experience through self-actualization.
Once you are able to understand your own way of seeing from your center, you are better able to acknowledge the view of another through understanding that every person has their own perception or way of seeing based on their own life experiences, cultural and family beliefs that affect their ability to be in the present. This impacts how they relate to you and to life, in general. This leads to a greater sense of compassion for others in the process of being compassionate with yourself in the process.
Whether this is a family member, partner, business colleague, or community member, this expands the potential to experience the possibility of peace through diverse views. In this way, this also creates the potential for finding ways to communicate and listen to the needs that you have in common to develop better group coherence. By doing so, it is then possible to create positive change that emerges from the need for life-enhancing needs that create benefits for all.

Winter is a time to consider going within to nourish your roots. It is time to incorporate self-care even more consciously during these cold months. This article shares natural ways to build integrity in your winter wellness naturally.
Winter is Water Element time in Traditional Chinese Medicine. So this is is especially a good time to do self-care for your kidneys and bladder. 1) Be sure that the food you eat and the beverages you drink are not cold. They should be at least room temperature. Drink 2-3 cups of water or tea between 1 and 3 pm to hydrate your system. Add a little salt to your meal at dinner (between 5 and 7 pm: Kidney time). 2) Eat foods with root vegetables, whole grains, and small amounts of meat or fish protein. Include foods that are dark blue or close to black in color to feed your kidneys. If you are a vegetarian, eat more beans, nuts, seeds, and tempeh. 3) Keep your feet and kidney area warm throughout the winter. Wear a scarf to keep your neck warm. 4) You can do some movement for this purpose as well: marching in place is helpful. Rub your ears also as they are related to Water Element.
2) Take Care of Your Lungs
Movement and Breath: Be sure to stretch your upper body. By doing this so, you are expanding your lungs. You can do this by opening your arms to the side and above your head to open your chest (stretching your lungs). Open your neck and mouth with a sound to expel toxins from the lungs as you do so. Stretch your upper body from side to side with your arms crossing over each other in a push to the opposite side to stretch your lungs for winter wellness.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIrAUL_VmiU&t=271s
Lung Exercises: Opening Chest Expands Lungs
Breathing Exercise: Pursed Lips Breathing: Pursed-lips breathing can slow down your breathing, reducing the work of breathing by keeping your airways open longer. This makes it easier for the lungs to function and improves the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide. This breathing exercise can be practiced at any time.
How to:
Inhale slowly through your nose.
Purse your lips, as if you are going to blow on something.
Breathe out slowly through your pursed lips. This should take at least 2 x as long as you take to breathe in.
Repeat.
3) Take Care of Your Large Intestine
Taking care of your digestion means being sure you are eating to keep your digestion running smoothly. When you have issues with digestion or elimination, incorporate fennel, ginger, marjoram, thyme, cinnamon, cloves, and black pepper in your cooking and teas. Consider flax seeds, flaxseed oil, and psyllium if you have difficulties with elimination.
Look at stress in your life that constricts your ability to let go. Be sure to keep hydrated. You can also use the sound, “M” for the sound of letting go.
4) More Natural Remedies for Winter Wellness
These two articles have additional winter wellness resources with nutritional, herbal, and tea recipes.
